Hi,
I have a couple of questions about a program I've been working on. Here's a

I'd love to have the group (or anyone for that matter) take a look at it and
give me some pointers. Since I'm not a programmer and I don't do this
continuously, I don't now if I'm on the right track or not. I'd l
I accidentally sent my reply to Kent only. So I'm forwarding it to the list.
